During some recent personal programming, I needed a function to slice a list
|
|
into pieces: Given a list of sub-list lengths, and an input list to be sliced,
|
|
return a list of sub-lists of the requested lengths. For instance:, slicing the
|
|
list (1 2 2 3 3 3) into sub-lists of lengths (1 2 3) returns the list of
|
|
sub-lists ((1) (2 2) (3 3 3)). Extra list elements at the end of the input list
|
|
are ignored, missing list elements at the end of the input list are returned as
|
|
null lists.
|
|
|
|
Your task is to write a program that slices lists into sub-lists according to a
|
|
specification of sub-list lengths. When you are finished, you are welcome to
|
|
read or run a suggested solution, or to post your own solution or discuss the
|
|
exercise in the comments below.
